Foursome

Beginning with the end and moving backwards though time, Simon Crowther's funny and heartwarming drama is about two couples' friendship over four decades.

Two couples - Lisa and Doug, Jan and Carl - have been friends for over four decades. But as they've got older their get-togethers have become more infrequent. Tonight, in a soulless, too-expensive restaurant, a revelation is about to send them spiralling back into their past, back to those other momentous meal-time moments that changed the shape of their future forever.

A funny and heart-warming tale of friendship and the passing of time.
